7 Internet usage in large companies Before: Internet was a commodity access to reach non-businness critical content. Now: Non business traffic is increasing: social networks, video Internet is used to access business critical applications SaaS: Salesforce, Office 365, SFB, Webex, Box.net, IaaS: Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Softlayer,, à Internet access becomes as critical as MPLS Gentle reminder: Internet = Public network with no SLA, poor (no?) control on routing, no CoS, no network visibity, no 7

8 AWS as a trigger of our peering policy 8

9 A powerful IaaS offer for Virtual Private Clouds Seen as virtual rooms connected to our data centers VMs in 3 AWS regions, and counting (21 VPCs) in 2012, IPsec tunnels were used to connect to AWS VPC à Challenge: how to provide MPLS-like connectivity? 9

22 The next steps Replicate our peering policy, worldwide à Create 15 Internet / Cloud connectivity Hubs Adapt our network transport toward the hubs (SDWAN) Deal more peering agreements with cloud providers Orchestrate the network: SDN / SDWAN / SDDC to better connect to the Cloud and to better connect Internet to our Cloud. 22

23 Main takeaways Peering adds quality and better control on network paths Public peering is not expensive and easily scalable Win / Win solution for Enterprises and Content providers A better solution to get Cloud content over SDWAN 23
